You kinda look like the actor from the original Robocop with his helmet off.

I have seen him live several times from 1988-2021. He had total disregard for his voice during the first 5 years. He was a banshee running around like his hair was on fire, screaming at the top of his lungs and boy was it fantastic, but there’s a price to be paid for that. I saw him in 2002. Thought he sounded great. That’s the thing I watch these videos and when I’m at the concert he certainly sounds better. Has the voice changed sure but too many people who don’t go to the shows are awfully critical. The last show I was at was at MetLife Stadium in 2021. He was fantastic. The guy is 61 years old. He does three hours shows his songs are extremely difficult to sing, how many people do you know are singing coma, estranged rocket queen welcome to the jungle you could be mine the songs r not easy. He then absolutely killed AC/DC much better than Brian Johnson that’s not even open for debate. He was also phenomenal on the Bon Scott stuff at the same time he was doing GNR. Is he 1988 Axl? Probably not but he’s an icon. He’s one of the best ever do it instead of criticizing him go to the shows they’re still great.

What’s wrong with Axel’s voice is simple…..4 decades of of top note singing with power hammers your voice over time at that level. His voice still comes through , but the high notes with power have gone. Very understandable considering his career. He has had it , one of the best and unique voices of all time, especially in the hard rock arena. The man was at the top of the game for years , has earned superstardom, rock legendary status and his money. 🎤🎼🎸 He is entitled to be a bit rough voice wise , because the man has done it all . Some do it , some talk about it. End of.

Axl always sings in falsetto, he's a bass-baritone. Adding the volume and the vocal fry is demanding if you're 60 instead of 20 years old. Could he sing better than this? Sure, but then he would be done for good in 15 minutes :)

I once saw Slash do the middle solo to this song in a small theatre and he busted a string about halfway through and seamlessly improvised the rest of it on the other available strings. Memorable.

I wish i was alive in the 90's and be able to go to a guns concert and experience the fierce 90's axl live... would never forget a day like that

Axl's voice changed a lot during the years, having ups and downs, but at the beggining of 2022 tour all the fans were concerned and I personally thought this was the end. He managed to recover to a better place, still far away from 1993 or 2016, but manageable. For sure he has some kind of problem or permanent damage, he does not do it on purpose. A smart thing he did on 2023 tour is moving to a setlist with more songs on a lower key, where he still has this unique voice and it is intact.

Axl Rose appears to be confronting vocal challenges in the realm of tenor and high tenor ranges. However, his performance showcases exceptional proficiency when he delves into the depths of the lower and baritone registers. It might be an advantageous strategy for him to consider adapting his musical pieces entirely within these lower ranges. By doing so, Axl has the potential to produce a captivating and innovative auditory experience that highlights a distinct facet of his vocal capabilities, thus presenting his audience with a novel and engaging rendition.

Simple. He is 60. The GNR repertoire is beyond demanding and hard. And his singing style is even harsh on his vocal chords. He doesn't want to damage his voice beyond repair, and it seems to me that he desires to continue singing for many years. All singers when reaching 35 start cutting down their performances, lowering the keys, singing shorter, trmming down the melodies to lower notes, and the older they get, the more they do it.

Axl's voice has been off since late 2016. The last truly good vocal year for him was 2010. 2011-2013 was awful. 2014 he was getting stronger and stronger, then the tour ended. 2016, he started out careful, but he got better and better, and AC/DC gave us the best screams he's done in YEARS. Then after the AC/DC tour ended, I noticed a change in Axl's voice. His rasp in GNR, that was getting steadily stronger and stronger was suddenly getting worse. I think he pushed himself too hard for AC/DC. This year, it came to a head, and he admitted his voice has been giving him problems. Good thing, too. It seemed like he was trying to use rasp again, but it was just...off. Like, he'd start songs in falsetto, and then start using rasp more and more in the song, then it'd crack, and he'd do this weird...cartoony forced lower, raspy voice. It'd almost sound like Popeye. He said he's been seeing a vocal coach lately, and I guess they had to give him a non-harmful technique. It's just...shameful that it's dragging his legacy through the mud. He's not pleasant to listen to anymore. He was such an incredible powerhouse back then. Maybe he needs a break, idk. He's had many amazing comebacks, 2016 being most-recent. I just hope it's not completely over for him... EDIT: Okay, 10 months later, they've toured, and Axl has shown so much improvement! His voice is a LOT stronger! He has power behind his singing, I see he's using a different technique that requires him to not jump around so much and focus on breathing, which makes him hold notes a LOT better, and he has great vibrato! And as for his rasp, it's returning, SLOWLY. At this point, we all know how he sounds, Axl knows how he sounds, and I'm sure he knows what we all think of it. He didn't get famous for a Mickey Mouse impression, he got famous for that banshee wail. He's being careful again, but I think he'll get it, if he continues down this road. It's peaking its way in a lot more these days! Axl is a smart man, so I am sure he is doing what it takes to get it back in a careful way.

There's a million miles on that voice, that's what. Axl was 25 years old when Appetite was released. He goes up there and still does his best and I admire the hell out of that. The opposite end of that spectrum is Vince Neil...

Great information with excellent shots of Slash. I could watch him all day!!❤

Love your passion for singing and music...Your review/analysis of this performance is spot on.

Thanks for your review. I value your opinion, always respectful to the artists. I’ve been watching their recent performances from Australia online & Axl sounds really good & more energetic. They will be in Melbourne on December 3rd. You should check them out. Would appreciate more recent opinion. Thanks & take care 😊

Axl was an absolute demon when he was singing during the late 80's and early 90's. He gave the fans everything he had. Unfortunately those days have passed and this is all Axl has left, but let's be grateful the band is still alive and touring.

The kid used to go so hard I’m surprised he didn’t cough out his lungs on stage back in the day. I’ll admit it’s hard to listen to him these days. But I’ll give him a pass. Top 5 rock singer of all time.

Brand new to your channel and just subscribed. Learning how to sing is a goal and am so happy to have found an educational vocal channel. Thank you for your objective instruction. So about Axl. I saw GNR two times in concert during the Use Your Illusion Tour and once almost 20 years later in late 2011 during the Chinese Democracy Tour. His voice and stage presence was magical. His voice as heard on the Tokyo 1992 home concert video was exactly 💯 as I heard him in person. Just imho from what has been discussed about singers who have vocal problems. Considering his age, years of smoking, the amount of vocal use over 38 years, and lower hormones/metabolism at his age, cardio/pulmonary shape related to exercise or lack thereof, it appears he physically just does not have his "true voice" anymore. We all get old and lose things and it is miserable to deal with, myself included at 49 years of age. How one would get their true voice back with these many factors constantly pulling at them seems like it would take a minor miracle. The singer from Cinderella God bless that guy went through multiple surgeries to help allegeded singing injuries. Axl has created a music collection half of which I would be eternally grateful to God for have given me the talent and circumstances to have created. People just want to see that band in concert even with Axl's voice completely off. Their touring is probably way more for money than the joy of performing music for fans. Just a guess, management, record company, and all other business interests probably told them something about you're getting older now... *MAKE THE MONEY WHILE YOU STILL CAN.* Slash allegeded has to pay his ex wife Perla $100,000.00... NOT a year, A MONTH in ALIMONY. He's well motivated to do this regardless of Axl's voice. Everyone else in the band has family/businesses they deal with outside of music too.

He's just taking it a bit easier on certain songs, at his age and given the touring schedule it's logical he only performs at say 75% each night so he doesn't overwork his voice. His lower and mid range still sound excellent it just sounds to me like he's conserving his energy. He always sings in a very twangy mix/head voice for the high stuff and without any rasp or nasal resonance it pretty much sounds like this guys, had a vocal coach react on another channel saying Axl was just screaming on pitch... Definitely not the case. Good video mate

Thank You very much for this video, this was really great, I enjoyed watching it enormously and it was also very enlightening😊😊😊😊

Give the man a break. The man’s 61. He’s been screaming since the 1980’s. I just saw him in concert two days ago and he was great. He’s lost a lot of weight too.

Just saw the man yesterday, how he and the Gunners belted out a 3 hour concert on stage. A phenomenal job considering his age. I won't lie, his vocal performance will never be as strong and mesmerizing as it was in the early nineties. BUT: I felt his voice was SIGNIFICANTLY better and more powerful than on the Not in this Lifetime tour I saw in 2017. I actually compared my own recording of SCOM with this clip and and you can definitely say that he still sings this song almost completely in falsetto. Is it as good as '92? Definitely not. Does it suck? Not at all, but it obviously feels different than the original. For one reason or another Axl can't sustain the constant trademark rasp that he always had back then. Let's hope that with better technique/coaching he can continue to keep his voice stable, or hopefully improve it again.

Just watched them in Singapore yesterday and Axl's voice was phenomenal !

I went to the Lexington show in September 2023 and he was very off key, but he gets a pass for being sick. But the bottom line is nobody is going to a GNR show these days expecting a great vocal performance. We all know Axl's voice isn't what it used to be; we go because we get a piece of our youth back, if only for a few hours.

That’s more or less how he sounds right now and for the past 4 or 5 years. The only difference between shows is that maybe in some shows the falsetto is a little bit stronger, but not with rasp anymore, except maybe some bits of welcome to the jungle.

I think Axl's BEST and most consistent way to keep presenting live is just using the still incredibly good deep low voice (I call it the cowboy voice lol) he has and try to approach the songs like that, he can definetly hit high notes on that lower frequencies it's the high notes he struggles with because he has lost power and let's be honest, only he could hit em' back in his prime, he just needs to adjust a little bit the tone and we would still have a GREAT deep voice singer, it would give a better hearing experience for the audience and a healthier technique for his voice. We lovd u Axl ur legacy will be alive forever, best frontman ever, nothing but RESPECT for the man's career, it's remarkable.

It's heartbreaking, wishing the best for him!

Axl has been singing this way progressively post-2010. He seems to really struggle to carry his vocal fold compression through the passaggio/bridge. If you listen to his voice in 2006, it was immense. 2010 wasn't quite as good but it was pretty close. What he's been doing more and more ever since is going into the light head voice. The problem with most GN'R songs is that they sit right in that difficult pocket for the most part, and because he can't seem to carry any weight into that area of his voice, he just brings his head voice down and it becomes wimpy. And then in songs where he can do it in higher chest voice, you get a yelled sound followed by a noticeable switch in register when he needs to go higher. He sounded really powerful on the ACDC tour because most of their songs stay high, so he could get into the area of his voice and go for it. It's when he has to navigate between chest and head that he struggles - his mixed voice is shot. In 2016 he could at least still bring in the rasp and get a fuller, more powerful sound up top but his rasp seems to be on the wane as well, probably compounded by the lack of good vocal fold compression which obviously makes it harder to actually produce a cool sounding distortion. The funny thing is that he's having similar issues to what Jon Bon Jovi is, but he's working around it the other way. JBJ is now fully belting (badly) in chest voice as he seems unable to get into his mixed voice anymore (and the songs are tuned down to help him). Axl is singing all the songs in their original tuning, but in order to get to the high notes, is totally forfeiting mixed voice and doing a lighter head voice (not quite falsetto - you can hear there's chord closure, but very light) instead. I noticed their new setlist this year now includes a number of songs where Axl is in chest voice, or is right up there where he's also comfortable. That's probably a good move!

Heard him yesterday in Frankfurt and it was amazing. No longer issues as far as we have noticed. Also he looks pretty much healthier than the last years.

The fact that he hits the stage over and over with a smile on his face truly makes me happy after all the years of controversy and just not being an active singer. I've seen him twice since they reunited and I had a great time mainly because the band was having a great time! Seeing them all smile and play makes me happy what can I say.

Axle is 61 years old and has been pushing and punishing his voice for at least 40 years, so I’m not surprised his voice has finally given up the ghost 🤘😎🤘🇬🇧

/Wasn’t at the 2002 Guns N’ Roses concert in Paris, because remember Axl Rose formed the new band members of Guns N’ Roses which featured Chris Pitman on keyboards and Buckethead on lead guitar

He still screams live and digging the old voice up. WHen seeing them live its completely different experience.

You can find live shows in the early 2000's where he purposely did the mickey mouse voice. "Purposely" - Because during the same years you can find shows where he sounded normal. So, he was doing it on purpose. Problem is people conflate that time period with the last 10 years. In the mid 2000's there are plenty of shows you can find where he sounded amazing - Normal. It was around 2011/2012 when something happened. He just couldn't sing anymore. Not in the same raspy normal way he always had. You can hear him struggling, trying to sing normally. But he can't. This continued on the current tour that's been in progress since 2016. It really sounds like he's hurting himself at times. There hasn't been a single performance since then (2011/2012) where he's sounded normal. I've probably listened to every single live show that's on KZfaq. All of this "It's his age! It's his weight! He's doing it on purpose to save his voice!"....is all nonsense. Something clearly happened around 2011/2012. Physically, to his vocal chords or nasal passages. Something broke. Scott Weiland's voice changed a lot in the late 90's and you can find a clip of the surviving band-mates saying Scott lost a lot of baritone from cocaine destroying his nasal passages. You can hear this easily. Listen to Scott live in 92-94. Then listen to him sing the same song in the late 90's or early 00's. His voice was much higher. Maybe that's what happened to Axl? Axl's speaking voice changed around 2012 as well. It's not as deep as it was. Has a nasally sound to it. At this point it's like the Emperor wears no clothes. People swear he still sounds great or that it's not that bad. It's horrendous. I feel bad for the guy. It's like his superpower has been robbed from him. It'd be like watching Jordan try to dunk...but he can't do it anymore. For a time in 2016 he was able to do really high screams and some of the AC/DC stuff. But that's it. Aside from that he sounds like a person doing an impression of himself (a bad impression at that). I am a massive GNR fan and fan of Axl. They're my favorite band and he's my favorite singer. I would still pay to see them now even with Axl's voice being so bad. So, I'm not just hating.

May be he was sick, there were a few shows cancelled, or one. But he is singing in that way in the last time. After ac dc, he couldnt get that level again.

It happens with singers..as you age your voice ages and its hard to impossible to hit the higher notes and sing like you once did,hey at least AXL is still out there singing live and not faking it by lip syncing to a backing tape like Vince Neil and Paul Stanley,he doesnt sound incredibly awful

I think you hit the nail right on the head mate. AX is hitting the age where your vocal folds stiffen up and ya. We ALL get older so time does its damage and there is no escaping the fact that we ALL go to the reality pit!

Yes, he sounds like a cross between Mickey Mouse and Herbert from Family Guy. But for a 60-year-old natural baritone to still be able to climb up to that higher register and live there for an entire song is incredibly impressive. Robert Plant lost the ability to do that back in the 70s, and he's a low tenor! Axl's natural voice is heard on "It's So Easy" and "Bad Obsession." He may have lost his rasp but he's still got incredible range.

I was at their Frankfurt concert this July. Wasn't disapointed at all. Those certain problems were there but it was a great show!

When you see this and then you see James Hetfield, you realize just how incredible James still sounds. They are both 60.

I think the rasp is what did his voice in, because most of the gnr stuff he used head voice, which isnt very harmful at all if you warm up properly, which he was well known for having a strict warm up procedure. He only really used a chest or throat voice on songs like knocking on heavens door, mr brownstone etc.

It’s got to be a challenge to set the bar so high when one is young, and still have to live up to it when you are a grandpa. Hey, I’d be happy to be in the same room with them live. Anyway, I’d also suggest perhaps they transpose… or better yet, release an unplugged ‘Layla’ style live re recording: one that perhaps starts lower, and soulful, then close out by allowing the guitar to really rip at the the end…you know…give ‘em best of both worlds? -Worked for Clapton. Cheers!

Man, how could you stop the song on the solo ;) great job with the video

Yes he sounded great when he sang with AC/DC and I just don’t understand why he doesn’t sing in his natural voice now. Axl always had a very nice deep singing voice and I wish he would just use it instead. We could all get past the fact that he can’t scream anymore.

This isn’t confirmed but I’ve read on numerous sites that Axl has had to have multiple vocal surgeries over the years from singing improperly for the first 5 years. If you listen to him from the early years, his voice would start to go towards the end of the sets and he would scream and rip his voice apart trying to hit the notes with power. Because of that he had to learn to sing properly without fucking up his voice and what you hear is that. It’s not that he can’t sing the way he used to, he can. He did it with AC/DC. If you watch the live shows, sometimes for a moment he’ll sing the way he used to and then quickly go back to what you hear now. It’s that if he sings like that for too long it rips his chords apart and he’s risking permanently damaging his voice. Again, this isn’t confirmed but it would definitely explain how he went from sounding like a chainsaw in key to Mickey Mouse. So, I don’t know. He’ll always be a God and I’m just glad he’s still doing it. Thanks for posting this man.

Great review thanks . Hope Axl can come back strong again

I saw Axl in 2006. Twice. Epic. Sounded like the 1990s Axl but even better. He was in way better shape back then.

I remember him sounding pretty good I think before Covid , I know it wasn’t that long ago I was impressed with his singing for his age, somthing major happened to him .

I’ll never understand why older singers don’t have the band tune down a step or two.

I've been a huge GnR fan for 31 years. I was too young to see them in Perth in 94. But have seen them four times since 2010. Saw them in October last year. I also saw Slash in 2018. He is unreal to this day! Hello from Perth!

Doesn't sound at all like what I've heard him sing. Love your expressions, and your observation. You did a great job singing parts of it

When you set the bar so high in the 80s and 90s, you're not going to be able to hold that standard forever

Axl is not sick. He has been sounding like this for a few years now.

Aside from the parts where Axl's voice hasn't been in top notch form since 2016, I'd say he fluctuates a lot. Twas sick back in September, so he was going to sound more off than when he's not sick. I'd been following concert vids closely since summer & as I've never seen GN'R live, I was even more curious for how I'd percieve Axl's voice to be given the tendencies of him sounding like Mickey. That being said, for my first time ever going to the San Diego show back on Oct. 1st, I felt he sounded really good overall! His recovery from when he was sick was quite remarkable. 3.5 hours & 33 songs. I daresay that's the longest setlist we've had this year in the states if I'm not mistaken. I knew to expect him not sounding great when he uses the falsetto for a number of the classic raspy sounding songs. But still, lower register is very good. And I'd say that night was worth absolutely every penny. It was really, really good overall. But yeah, that being said, I do love Axl a lot & I do want him to still sing for many years to come, so I just hope he keeps making adjustments accordingly.

Sir I need advice I used to sing for years and its been now nearly a decade since I sang would I still get the same voice back like before I am healthy and no voice damage that I know, would like to get back into it again, I also had a strong raspy singing voice in the day

Well said, Alex Murphy. 🦾

My goodness... it's like Axl doing a karaoke version of his own song!

I’m guessing Axl blew his voice out singing with AC/DC. I never saw or heard him sing as hard as he did with them. He’s probably singing this way so he can keep performing live so they don’t have to cancel the remaining tour dates. Too bad. Hopefully he can still bring it on whatever studio work they come up with.

Hello From Cambodia. I'll be in the US in Septemmber and I bought tickets to GnR. They were the band that made me fall in love with music. Slash is why I play guitar. I've never had a chance to see them. The tickets were super expensive and I'm not really excited about seeing them (except Slash) from the reviews I've seen lately.

In recent years, he seems like he's just having fun, not really trying to impress. He still does the powerful raspy voice now and then (e.g, "There was a Time" from Madrid this year).

He seems to struggle for breath when you listen. Nothing but admiration and respect for him for being the backbone in composing timeless masterpieces.

Axl is when at his best back in the 80s and 90s is a 5 octave singer. He is very hard working and demanding singer upon himself and even when you are one of the best if you are not careful you can shred your voice. He needs perhaps vocal rest and to take a vacation if he is ill like a cold or something. Allegedly he is working with a vocal coach to help him out. He is 67 and he has pushed his voice hard for decades. At this point he is mostly bass-barritone. I feel for him. Maybe they all need a break from the touring.

1:43 love that reaction to the music, slowly smiling hahaha

That was awesome thanks! If you’re going to perform a song where everyone in the audience is singing along (like this one), would that alter your approach as a vocalist?

I had tickets to a GnR show and after watching this I was nervous. But after the concert last night I’m happy to report Axl had his full range back. No falsetto singing like in the video. He also looked way more confident and energetic.

There’s never been anything wrong with his pitch it’s simply the power rasp that’s gone. 2016 he sang the super high bits very well but apart from that he sang in this odd sounding tone. He does this tone on a number of songs and then sometimes the true Axl voice comes in. Since the shows after lockdown he’s been using that tone and even when tries to apply rasp it doesn’t come out properly when before when he applied it it came out smoothly

Assalamu'alaikum Axl..i hope you healthy always and good bless you

I've been asking this same question since the 80's

He was told that if he kept singing the way he did that he would permanently damage his vocal chords, looks like he did

Axl could use your help! Still nothing wrong with Slash’s killer guitar playing . Slash continues to impress me how he just keeps getting better .

Axl rose is just not using his voice twang and distortion he still has it I've heard him sing and it comes and goes i don't know if he does it intentionally or he just doesn't wanna use it in his singing anymore his still the best Guns N Roses 🌹💀 4 life

I hope rock music will be back again after sleep more than 20 years. Thank you GNR .

I been 3 GNR concert after reunion, 2023 now in Budapest he sound better then before 5y. Not all songs, some of that he sound bad. But some sound surprises amazing. Dont Cry exp he sound incredible good.

The biggest mystery to me is what happened between December 2010-October 2011. That’s where the big change happened.

I will not let anyone speak badly of Axl!

It was the song Sweet Child Of Mine that made me want to play guitar I was just 6 years old when it hit MTV I saw the video and I knew right then what I wanted to do the rest of my life

Interesting video, thanks. I'd be interested in your opinion of his singing at Glastonbury festival this year (2023). Regards from the UK.

Axl is my all time favorite but I wouldn't pay a dime to hear him sing like this , sad before the pandemic break he would sing some songs real good and some others bad , but now they are all bad , like you said , he was amazing with ACDC

Axl may be off on his singing but Slash is making his guitar sing just fine !! Absolutely Amazing 🤩 🤩 Might be a off night for Axl.

Your vocals chords,Have always been the natural process of time..... that's music...the song's there...what is singing, what is a song.... it's the vibrations of nature...want to know more...cost ya🕸️🔥🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🔥🌱

I love your expression when listening to Axl. I had the same lol!

When you see them live and I mean live not on KZfaq-live, you'll notice it's not that high Mickey Mouse-sound where everyone is talkin' 'bout. Does he sound different as back in the '90s or early 2000s? Yes, no doubt 'bout that. But he got older too. I've see them in '93, 2017, 2018 and ofcourse only Axl with AC/DC in 2016. But it's different when you are at the festival or you hear it on KZfaq.

Maybe he just tired to singing same stuff for years and ACDC was for him smth new i really dunno, but in some cases he sounds amazing when he using lower notes. I dont know if he has troubles with voice or he afraid to harm why GNR just adapt old song for new format or create new song which AXL can properly sing, because Mickey Mouse stuff sounds awful.

Which venue/location on the 2023 tour did this come from? I seen Guns N' Roses on October 24th, and he sounded _great!_

At least he’s not canceling concerts like in the 90’s. Although he probably should until his voice has a chance to recover.

Axel Rose isn’t Usher (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q9Zogqd4q73Ldps.html). Axel won’t take care of himself the same way other artists will despite singing being his profession. He rocked hard and partied harder for decades.

Hi I attended the reunion tour. I thought he was in great voice. I had no knowledge of previous singing voice issues. Personally, I feel he is working too hard. Not resting his voice adequately enough, especially after the ACDC tour. He did an outstanding job. He is still young enough to rest his singing voice for at least 18 months to build his natural range back up to sing in his own natural forwardness. Also, after listening to some interviews it appears to me that the lack of competent sound stage testing and during GNR's performance Axl is forced to sing over sound issues that should have been corrected in sound check. Which leads to Axl singing not as he normally would and being forced to sing against his true style creates further vocal issues. The GNR reunion concert was the first outdoor concert I had ever attended. Maybe as an experiment a suggestion would be to hold a series of their shows at indoor venues. I know they have been there and done that. Just a suggestion. Still know he is simply the best. Much love to him XX❤❤❤❤

What's going on with slash? Why is his guitar muted on the refrain leads?

just watched Hershey PA 2023. sounds like he has it back

I haven't heard his voice any different than this in the past 2-3 years (at least). Yes it's great they are touring, but I couldn't pay good money to go and hear Axl not in his prime, it would be such a shame to hear them half assed.

It's like Mickey Mouse was singing in GnR 😳

Well his been having vocal issues for a while and even tho he went on tour. Btw ..the fact hes been on time on set this last tour makes me have respect fr what he still doing

Age. Im no expert but I've heard voice coaches also talking about the havoc it can wreak on your voice if you rasp or screech without the right technique. The guy yowled his head off on stage for decades and has just entered his 60s. Going to see a guns n roses tribute band next year as i wasnt born when he and the band were in their prime and i think its undeniable that his best years are far behind him.

He has sung in falsetto 90% of the time his whole career but after 1993 he blew out his voice (and now has "mickey mouse" voice). Sweet child of mine is sung in falsetto on the studio album from 1987.

Axl sounded like mickey mouse having a heart attack... 😂

intersting take. lets talk, ive seen these shows.

The young guy who sings with Steven Addler's band sounds like Axl did at his peak, if anyone wants to check them out.

Overall he can't rock anymore.. The band need a singer with energy but axl lost it.. It's rock not jazz

Disney announces $15 million dollar deal for axl to sing in a new Disney musical. Axl will being doing the voice of mickey mouse who will break out into song. "There's simply no other person that can do mickey mouses voice as well as Axl can" one spokes person for Disney said.

I saw them 2 weeks ago in Budapest. I had concerns because of the videos that maybe it's not worth it BUT these videos are not giving justice for the man. The show was one of the greatest i was ever and Axl was giving all he had. Falsetto or not, it sounded great live and i'm very grateful that i saw them.

One of the greatest qualities of any teacher is modesty.
